You cannot "reverse" a case before it goes to court, because there is nothing yet to reverse. You probably mean can you get a case dismissed before it goes to court. The answer is Yes and that depends on the facts of the case and the law involved. It can be dismissed on substantive or procedural grounds. Dismissal on substantive grounds is usually done by summary judgment. This can occur if a court finds that under the law involved, even if the plaintiff proves his case, he still is not entitled to a judgment against the defendant. Dismissal on procedural grounds can occur when one or another party fails to do something the court rules require that party do, like providing discovery on time. A dismissal on substantive reasons acts like a final adjudication. The action may be appealed but not reinstated. An action dismissed on procedural grounds can be reinstated if the failure is corrected unless a statute of limitations prevents it.
